Hi folks - living in Vancouver BC but my heartstrings for the Maritime folks are forever. It's just wacky really - but my wife jabs me in the side during our day to day travels when I notice a Maritime plate visiting the BC neck of the woods and I feel compelled to touch base with these folks by approaching them and saying hi ( which usually results in a 30 min or so chit chat about back home :) )

Have a great summer & have a Lobster and a Keiths or two on me ;)

  • Hello back!

    Hello from Calgary AB from a former gypsy maritimer.
    I have lots of family from Springhill and Five Islands (the big 5-I), but hail from everywhere else is the Maritimes. Lived in Nova Scotia (Halifax, Truro, Hilden, Brookfield, Bass River, Economy, and Sackville) and New Brunswick (Moncton, Bouctouche, Fredericton, Sackville, Saint Antoine, and Riverview).

      Great stuff Barefoot Willow - as a fellow Nomadian we should be friends and share adventures and pics ( hey do you remember the raging bon fires we had as kids back home - miss these the most :( )

      Anyhoo Tribe invite me to be your friend and we'll share

          Loved Five Islands... actually meeting up with so many maritimers has gotten me a little homesick soooooo I might do a Maritime Adventure in the fall of next year

          Cheers

              Sounds like a deal! - We've got 3 weeks off in August so this could happen

                I joined this tribe to meet people out east here. I"m a backwards import (moved from bc <salt spring island>to ns <south shore> for the lower property values) . seems like all the groovy east costers are all out west making better money! come back in ten years when i'm an established realtor and you've made your fortune and i'll sell your homeland to you.
                but if there's anyone on this tribe who still lives in ns, spec, south shore, i'd be glad to meet ya since i've spent the last 6 months being so deprived of social situations that i'm beginning to get really wierd.
